Should I Repair or Replace My Furnace?

While no one can predict exactly when your furnace will break down, there are some signs that a furnace needs to be replaced.

How Old Your Furnace Is

Heating systems typically last between 12–17 years. If the heater is 15 years old (or older), it has a higher risk of failing. You should start the process for replacement by researching new furnaces promptly.

Frequent Repairs

You should consider HVAC replacement if a furnace needs repairs more frequently.

Higher Energy Bills

Worn down furnaces are less efficient. If you haven’t scheduled yearly furnace maintenance, you’re vulnerable to losing further furnace efficiency and ending up with increasing energy costs.

Inconsistent Heating

An older heater can struggle to keep up with heating your home. Leaky ductwork and a dirty furnace filter can also stir up trouble.

Three Benefits of a New Furnace

While furnace installation may seem intimidating, new furnaces can boast efficiency older systems can’t contend with. In addition, you can sit back and relax knowing you won’t need to replace your system for a long time.

A new furnace can offer:

1. Better Efficiency

Todays furnaces are extremely dependable and can boast exceptionally better efficiency ratings versus equipment from 20 years ago.

2. Quieter Operation

A newer furnace includes the latest in quiet operation technology. You might not notice when it turns on.

3. Peace of Mind

The latest HVAC technology ensures your heating will stay in good shape for longer and run with greater energy efficiency. With maintenance service agreements, you’ll never forget an important furnace tune-up again.
